About this artist

Lisa Fox

Shropshire born and bred, Lisa had an idyllic childhood growing up surrounded by ponies, dogs, chickens, a pet sheep and even an orphan Canada goose, which she hand raised by hand. With all these animals and wide-open spaces to explore and fuel the imagination, Lisa was never to be found indoors playing with dolls. More often than not she would be found in a den she had built somewhere, talking to her imaginary friends or writing and illustrating stories about them.

Lisa grew into quite an angry teenager, and the whimsical world of pet animals gave way to goth music, jumble sale chic, and blue hair and lipstick and it was inevitable that art school beckoned!

Lisa then went on to study at Brighton Polytechnic & Glyndwr University, and then spent some time travelling around Canada and the USA.

She managed to combine freelancing with a career in design for 11 years, before deciding to return to education as a mature student in 2003. She graduated from Glyndwr University in 2006 with a BA (Hons) degree in Illustration for Children's Publishing, and it was whilst exhibiting at the New Designers show in London in that year, that she was spotted by the Bright Agency.
